Remembering Japanese cars from the past
What is even more impressive than the Motorfix 1UZ (with ITBs) powered UZE70 Corolla? A supercharged 1UZ Celica XX GA61 (aka the Celica Supra mk.2) with its supercharger sticking out of the bonnet in Mad Max style!

Normally a smoketest would be performed to see if everything still works fine. I would not have expected MotorFIX to take it this literally:
Holy smoke Batman! That little Corolla is really tearing up the circuit! Last time it was restrained by the enormous amounts of rain pouring down, but now we really get to see its real potential!
I also like the comments under the video on Youtube by waider:
Love at first sight

jizz at first sight
This very first drift video of the MotorFIX Corolla 1UZE70 just got posted on Youtube. Apparently it had its maiden trackday Yesterday afternoon at the YZ Circuit.
In the first few minutes they take it gently, but after two minutes the Corolla gets really tail happy with its new engine. Unfortunately it starts to rain and you can see it gets more difficult to control the car but after a couple of laps the driver regains control.
Also notice the white Carina AA63 (with fender mirrors) trying to keep up. It is doing a good job IMO. :D
Now this is something exciting from the Exciting Car Showdown 2011: MotorFIX presented their new E70 weapon! A 1UZ powered E70 featuring a set of 8 ITBs! And I don’t think it will be suitable to put a stack of champagne glasses on it!
Now that sound is freaking awesome! Just imagine how easy it would be to put this little hornet sideways! It gave me goosebumps!

On the 22nd of August the MotorFIX team did a short practice run on YZ Circuit East Course. The practice is meant for the triple drift competition in the upcoming MSC challenge:
As you can see: the Corolla AE70 wagon is better than ever!
This Corolla E7 meeting (held yesterday at Asagiri Kogen) video was uploaded today by ae86lan. Not only does it show some really great E7s (like the beautifully N2 flared TE71!) but at 2:19 it shows the best news I’ve heard/seen in the past months: the MotorFIX AE70 wagon all fixed up again!
On close up you can see it has been reinforced in every way possible, so hopefully it is strong enough for all the abuse and it will withstand another impact!
The black N2 flared TE71 intrigues me a bit: it has deep dish Hayashi Streets, AE86 N2 fender flares, Sprinter front fenders and round headlights. Its looks remind me a bit of the yellow Group B Starion but then, of course, much better and improved.
Oh and let’s not forget the two Carinas at 3:12! Yum! :)
